Larry Tesler, who is known as the father of popular commands “copy, cut, and paste” that we use daily, leaves us at 74. He was born on April 24, 1945, in New York. After completing his computer science from Stanford, Tesler worked at Xerox PARC. He later joined Apple and was part of projects like Lisa, Macintosh, and Newton Tab.

When Steve Jobs visited Xerox PARC, Tesler showed him the ideas that they were working on at that time. Jobs called it “goldmine” and that they could change the world with that. Tesler left Apple in 1997 an worked briefly for 23andMe. He will be missed in the tech community for his contribution to computer science.
